Re: Fume extractor recommendation
I think you need to be a little more specific. Do you want a full hood and exhaust outside, or trap the fumes in filter/chemical media? Or, do you just want to get it out of the work zone and diluted?

Re: Fume extractor recommendation
See if you can reach the facilities department at a local university.? They should be able to point you in the direction of a supplier who can meet your needs. Peter

Re: Testing Scope Probes
What happens if you take a series of measurements, then disconnect the probes, flip the T 180 degrees, examine the result and evaluate both of them? Harvey

Re: Fume extractor recommendation
I have a few solutions, and it depends on how you balance paranoia, health, and work to do it. The classic chem lab solution is a fume hood. For a soldering station, you need a vent near the soldering

Fume extractor recommendation
Hi all, I've had a recent scare with potentially evil metals that can vaporize - you know who you are.... - and absolutely need a good, and hopefully affordable, solution for my bench soldering needs.

Re: Testing Scope Probes
I'm not sure what you mean. One can't simply look at the BNC Tee and declare that the ~120ps length of each arm is so short at 500MHz that it is irrelevant. You have to analyse how the system will

Re: Testing Scope Probes
Yeahbut but the phase difference shouldn't matter for a comparison of the two waveforms at a high enough sweep rate, surely, as you can visually eyeball individual cycles...?

8340B option removal
Has anyone had occasion to remove option 006 and restore the pulse modulation feature on an 8340B? The one I¡¯m looking at seems to have all the hardware in place (A21 pulse modulator board, A9 low

Re: Testing Scope Probes
If the 3.5GHz 'known good probe' probe is a passive Zo probe, it might look like 500R in parallel with 1pF up at UHF. By contrast, a 10073C will typically look like about 60R in parallel with about

Re: Testing Scope Probes
One take-away from all this discussion is that it's very tricky to make good measurements at higher frequencies, especially with scope probes. It's hard enough even comparing probes attached to fairly

Re: Testing Scope Probes
Jmr, The 3.5Ghz known-good probe is a *passive* one! And the other chap who said it was a 400Mhz scope - it's the 350Mhz model in fact.

Re: Testing Scope Probes
There seems to be lots of anecdotal evidence in the responses, and a few technical problems with the measurement setup of his original post. Is he following any one of many documented procedures here?

Re: Testing Scope Probes
OK thanks. Bear in mind that tests are being done up to 500MHz and your T piece method relies on the voltage at both probe inputs being the same. This is in some doubt if you use a completely

Re: Testing Scope Probes
LeCroy makes a test fixture, part # PCF200 that is just the ticket for testing high frequency ¡®scope probes. You can view pictures of it using the Googly what¡¯s it on the InterWeb Thingy. It has

Re: Testing Scope Probes
@JMR If you read Jinxie's first post to this thread you will find she does have a "good" probe: "The scope I am using for this test is a 350Mhz Tek analog one and it can 'see' waveforms perfectly well

Re: Testing Scope Probes
There's a nice app note about probe impedance and using them by HP: It has a comparison of tek and HP probes that does not include the 10073C, but shows the concepts with examples and charts...all for

Re: Testing Scope Probes
Honestly Jinxie, you did. That is why you started asking questions. If everything looked right to you, you wouldn't have thought a thought about it. -Chuck Harris <paul666@...>
By Chuck Harris · #143313 ·
Re: Testing Scope Probes
You can try the T piece method as long as you accept that it won't actually demonstrate the expected bandwidth of the probe. It will show differences between the probes. You will have to be wary of

Thanks, Robert. When I have the time to jump through all of Microchip's hoops I will investigate. Greg

Re: Testing Scope Probes
Perhaps I can combine elements of the best methodology from posters here to get the best results. The thing I'm concerned about with using T adaptors is I don't know what they're specified to. I've
